Sedition - A Post-Apocalyptic...

Adrienne Lecter

Reunited again—and I don’t f*cking care whether that’s a good thing or not. 
Haunted by grief, plagued by hunger, we’re on the run—again. And mostly not from the undead this time, since I have my own special way of dealing with the zombies. It’s the living who think that survival of the fittest puts them on top of the food chain now.  
Well, I got a surprise for you… 
And, wouldn’t you know it, Jared is all for helping me stay strong… and full. 
But there is hope for humanity yet, even if mine’s possibly lost for good. Resistance is rising, the intrepid few still fighting for a better tomorrow. Maybe not all is lost for those believing they are beyond being saved—or don’t give a crap about such mundane concepts. Yet times are trying enough that for a hot meal and a quiet night at a warm fire, we might just risk it all. 
Only that none of us realized what we’d actually have to bargain for… 
Because in the zombie apocalypse, things can always get worse.

HP Lovecraft, Edith Nesbit,...

In an effort not to be judged by others we sometimes become our own harshest critic and judge.

What Hides in the Cellar - Patel...

Graham Masterton

Jerry Pardoe and Jamila Patel investigate an eerie string of murders featuring missing feet and disembodied heads in the chilling horror from Graham Masterton. 
 
A SEVERED HEAD 
 
After a South London man is shot and killed at home, his wife swears that the offender had no feet. Even stranger, when a teacher is murdered at a local school, her pupils insist they saw disembodied feet dangling from their classroom ceiling. All across the country, victims claim the assailant was missing a body part, while others stumble upon the severed appendages. 
 
A SUPERNATURAL CASE 
 
It's clear these murders are neither straightforward nor easily explained, which means there are only two people fit to investigate: DS Jamila Patel and DC Jerry Pardoe, who are used to tracking spirits intent on causing mayhem. 
 
A BLOODY HISTORY 
 
And when two children go missing – finding themselves lost in another time period altogether – the investigation will lead to the discovery of a violent entity. One who has been killing for much longer than anyone first realised... And has no plans to stop.

Annie Ashworth is on maternity leave from her police job, enjoying spending time with baby Alfie. Her days at home might lack excitement, but after all of the horrific crimes she’s witnessed, that’s fine with her.
But when she starts having strange dreams – dreams that turn out to be linked to a local murder – she can’t stop herself from digging. There’s an eerie connection to a serial killer from the 1950s, and Annie fears that the same dark forces are back.
And maybe it’s just new-mum tiredness playing tricks on her, but she’s been noticing a cold presence lingering around Alfie late at night. Could her baby be the target of whatever evil is haunting them? And will she have what it takes to protect him?
